It's a new day in America, Air America. The Young Turks are proud to join the Air America Radio network as their morning drive program all across the country.

The Young Turks are the New Morning Show for Air America
Our goal is to be number one in every market we're in. So, our new target is whichever radio show happens to be holding our spot atop the radio ratings in our new markets.
We are very aggressive and we will take the fight to our opponents. This is not about treading water, this is about winning. So, all of the people who ever wrote a negative story about Air America - we are out to prove you wrong. If you want to take that as a direct challenge, be my guest.
